What Can You Say?

Late Wednesday night, Banks' 7-year-old daughter Heaven was sitting next to Banks as she sold snacks and snow cones when someone opened fire down the street around 10:45 p.m. A stray bullet hit the little girl as she ran back to her house in the 1700 block of North Luna Avenue, police and family say.

Mayor Rahm Emanuel on Thursday lashed out at the gang thugs who shot and killed a 7-year-old selling lemonade under her mother’s watch in the latest example of the gang violence that’s driving a 38 percent spike in Chicago homicides.

Emanuel clearly seems to be running out of things to say when innocent kids are caught in the gang crossfire or when bodies and shooting victims pile up after each summer weekend.

So he took a new tact after the Wednesday night murder of Heaven Sutton, a 7-year-old Austin girl who had begged her mother to move after several recent shootings in their West Side neighborhood.

Instead of defending gang strategies that don’t appear to be working, the mayor went on the offensive against the cold-hearted gang members engaged in a shootout around a kid selling lemonade on a summer night and a mom who was right there watching.

“This is not about crime. This is about values. Take your gang conflict away from a 7-year-old. Who raised you? You have a 7-year-old selling lemonade. You’re a member of a gang coming to get lemonade and another gang member is driving by. Where were you raised and who raised you? Stay away from the kids,” the mayor said, his voice rising.

Who raised them? No one did Rahm. This is what half-a-century of LBJ's "Great Society" has left us with - dead 7-year-old kids.

Another corporate "FUN-raiser" party for personal gain -- collecting 100's of millions of dollars -- dividing up the ill gotten proceeds with the local politicians from the corporate tax breaks and taxpayer bailouts and the public pension thefts?

Follow the money!

The society that you've created is collapsing upon itself from the greed.

We're headed into economic bankruptcy because we can't afford the security forces that you need to keep the crime and violence in check. Lowering the penalty on pot possession is just a symbol of that.

The taxpayers are tapped out and the corporations that create the so-called jobs are either unwilling or unable to help you.

Second - Rahm Emanuel's ludicrous speech today was the ultimate exercise in the spin-doctor being unable to say a damned thing, while using many, many words to do so.

That speech sounded like a typical three year old, stomping his foot because someone wouldn't do what HE wanted. No substance, no beginning, middle or end, no solution proposed, no threat or promise made. Just a bunch of disorganized words with no content whatsoever.

When you actually listen to Rham Emmanuel as he speaks publicly you notice he actually sounds like Daley-ineloquent, stuttering, disjointed and largely incoherent. Obviously, this idiot wasn't destined for medical school or law school as was the rest of his family-a real grape. So he settled into a job that a moron could hold, and did! Fuck this goof-Sawyer County here I come!!!

Yep...left to rot on the liberal/democrat plantation. The problems we face on the south and west side are the direct result of liberal thought and logic. They have made slaves of them all over again but this time its not their labor that is the commodity, its their vote. When everything you wear, everything you eat, everything you drink, every place you've lived, every bit of schooling, has come from the government...you're a freakin' slave!

Who the f*ck is out looking for a lemonade stand at 10:45 at night, anyway?

When I was 7 years old, I was in bed at 9:00 PM. This child, (and many of the others that have been accidentally killed), would be alive today if they'd AT LEAST follow this one rule of society. I guess when NO ONE has to get up in the morning to go to work, there's no need for the children to have to sleep. They're just being trained by mama to be the next generation of Obama's Welfare drain on the rest of society... great job the all you left wing liberals!

Well said.

With the Supreme Court Arizonia SB1070, Obamacare and Stolen Valor rulings, the Leftists in DC are paving the way for the whole USA becoming like the west side of Chicago.

If anyone believes the little girl and her mother were actually selling lemonade you are a fool! I'm surprised rham isn't looking for a way to issue the mother an anov for running a late nite lemonade stand after regular business hours.

And yet the city is having to pay the NRA and others millions in legal fees because they want to deny the people the right to defend themselves. Arm the civilians so they can fight back and see what happens to the crime rate. As good as any police force is, they aren't there when the crime happens. They are reactionary, writing the reports, cleaning up the mess and hopefully catching the BG's.

The only solution is for the States Attorneys office and the courts to support the arrests you make. At Juvenile Court so many cases are screened out or no filed that the delinquents know they won't be held accountable. If they do get convicted , the consequences are minimal as there is a growing obsession to stop holding them in custody, the goal seems to be to have the Audy home empty. There is also pressure to not violate their probations , but rather provide them with additional "services" "probation sanction" which are being provided by - guess who- southside and westside churches and community groups. Over the years I have seen the problem get worse and worse and the attitudes of the juveniles and the families get worse and worse. The amount of disrespect shown to judges is becoming unbelievable. The good judges are becoming frustrated about being pressured to not holding kids in custody. Theres nothing worse then watching a true young criminal walk away from the bench with the smirk on his face , knowing he's skated again. The only way this is going to stop is to turn you guys completely loose, and then prosecute everyone who needs to be locked up till the bad guys get the idea . Unless control is taken soon, it's going to be over for this city. Looking at crime in other major cities , it's obvious were doing something wrong and it's not on the police on the street side. START LOCKING UP DELINQUENTS !!

Wow!"Who raised you?"How desperate must The Dancer be?Now he's appealing to thugs on moral grounds!!!!Surely, he must be aware of how this shooter was most likely raised. Because if he truely does not he is even more out of touch than I ever imagined.

You're in charge, but you don't do anything to fix the problem.You don't hire police, you reward gang bangers.You fon't hire police, you enrich your buddies by buying cameras.You don't reward and support the few police you have, you try to undermine them and make their lives more difficult at every turn.Buy a mirror Rahm, step up on a stool and gaze into it.You'll get a terrific view of the problem.

No seven year old should ever be shot but we as a society have to look at the mother and ask what the hell are you doing? 1045pm and your seven year old is out on the street in Austin. Ps the kid wasn't running a lemonade stand mom sell knoll aide and son cones because you know a regular job would mean a end to the free state money link card sec 8 free phone free electric. Mom you choose to live like you do and you chose to have your daughter outside at 1045pm. Yes it should be safe on the city streets at all time but it isn't and you know that. Mom needs to be more responsible, the shooter needs to go to hell, and the intended victim should closely follow for bringing this on the community.

the thing about it is the gangbangers know hes talking shit. this became obvious, when he hired cease fire. he is not going to get this problem off his back until he hires more pos. he prefers to bs and stall. in the meantime we are talked about on national media, as a city out of the control. so who wants to open a business, or visit the magnificent mile? he prefers to spend tax payers money on his pet projects.

Wtf? Is this the first time Rahm Emanuel had to encounter the black ghetto? Spent too much time in D.C.? What the Fuck do you think these animals are doing? They are the Democrats voting base, and he don't understand them?

The momma fell to the ground when she heard the shot fired, why didn't she instruct her little child to do the same thing ? Since the baby got shot running towards the house the shooter targeted her deliberately just because she was a moving target. This was no accident.

There's a lot to be said about being 7 yrs old and running around after 10:00pm. This isn't 1960 when sitting on your stoop and gabbing with your neighbors was common. That neighborhood hasn't be safe since the 70's when it started to decline and quickly at that. BTW, all the tears on the news, was there one person on that block who felt it was safe to outdoors at those hours? Rahm can ask the mother if having a child outdoors in a war zone after 10pm is appropriate upbringing. Can one really blame the mother if she just didn't know better? The culture won't be changed, kids will be outside all night and bangers will shoot whenever they want The crime won't subside, in fact its down overall. The 50 elected Council sock monkeys with their mouths sewn shut and a "yes" vote in hand, won't demand more police. Even the Superintendant says we can do much more with so less.

Well Mr. Mayor here was your opportunity to direct your question to the very people at fault for this senselessness, these so called "parents". What the hell was this kid doing out at 1045pm? This was no little girl and her lemonaid stand. This was a grown woman with an illegal snack stand. Where are her values? Understand this...there are no values or priorities in the ghetto. I was born and raised in Chicago Mr. Mayor, I might be able to teach you a few things.

This is happening so much people now just shrug their shoulders and sigh! We have lost the battle,lost the war! With the coward judges who are cook county hacks that let arrested go with no probable cause so much,,just to keep the demo rats in power! Police manpower is low,and even the younger,aggressive coppers are stressed and tired,now with the denial of accured time due, moral completely gone, bosses who want to screw with the troops every chance they get, sorry the only thing to look forward to is. A pension that with all the high level theft of our money with be taken! Hey Rahman and the 50 spineless wonders this is not the time to piss off coppers!

You nailed it. The democrats are the new slavemasters, and their Uncle Toms are not the Allen West's and Colin Powells, but the Jessies' and Sharptons, and all the other race-baiting pimps, bleating like goats at their masters call to keep the flock in line.

Hey Rahmy Babe, take it from me a wheel gun street cop for a long time. Pointing a finger at the camera and raising your tone of voice does not in anyway deter crime or frighten criminals. The system is broke. Years of shelling out freebies, lack of parenthood, no self worth or reponsibilities, is the result we now must accept as a way of life in the hood. If you got a gold tooth, maybe a little weave, a tattoo on your neck, and a Link card, you are a ghetto success story. Period.

Where were you raised and who raised you?". In Chicago, you know, the proud product of the Democratic Liberal Utpoia You and your Democrats created!!! Now deal with it and heir more POLICE before it's to late

How sad to lose ones daughter that way.. although with a parent WHY were EITHER of them out at that hour in that area??While Michelle Obama yaps about turning off the T.V. she should be questioned on just WHAT these kids should do since going outside is NOT an option.. and most of them can't even read.. Rahm thought his presence would make the gangs disappear?? and all of a sudden these gang bangers and their mothers/fathers would become GOOD parents teaching them morals and values.. HEY DEMOCRATS you created this type of thinking by your FROM CRADLE TO GRAVE interference.. NOW others are paying for YOUR LACK OF VALUES AND MORALS..

wow is he out of touch,anyone who ever had to deal with westside mutts know whats up..their welfare mutts have better cars and tv's than workin family what a joke.why daddy is sellin crack momma is baggin it up.

Hey why not get some balls mr mayor and get tough with everyone. Who put that little girl in that situation, the gang bangers?, the police? Society? Nope it was only one person, her momma. Its sad the little girl lost her life, but let's analyze the issue at hand. No amount of outside controls can change that.

It is not PC to ask kids, "Who raised you." They tell that to all school teachers, not to ask that question....Rahm is clueless and just to wealthy to understand the middle or lower class of society. If you ain't a millionaire, you are a loser in the eyes of the raccoon.

Rahm is showing a lack of control and his north shore liberal ignorance to the reality on the front lines in the ghetto. He really has no idea what the day to day problems are in these war zones. The STREETS raised these murderers, you idiot. There were no parents.

... and I'm sure that Ashake Banks (mama) has a city food business license, underwent Health Dept. inspections, pays tax(es) and claims income on her 'annual' IRS forms as well as LINK and Welfare eligibility forms.(Allegedly) selling 'candy' at 11:45 P.M. on the front lawn ( or lack thereof)on a side street with your innocent 7 year old allowed to roam at this time makes you equally 'irresponsible' as the thugs that did the shooting at that hour.Despite how the liberal media spins the 'accountability' for this tragedy YOU may not be judged here on earth but certainly in the hereafter. I suggest that you forgo the concern of mesothelioma and ask A.R. Leak to line 'your' box with asbestos.It may give you a few more moments to think about your total responsibility for the loss of this innocent child.

Excellent speech Rahm. You should have it played at all Chicago Public Schools 3 x a day: at their free breakfast, lunch, and dinner (also in spanish) so future generations can contemplate who's raising them.

This is what years of corruption leaves. Dead kids. This will soon be proved, corrupt executives, police and generations of the same gang of thugs still child killing and child sex trafficking. They need to include sensitivty training at the Police Academy, I called from Mt Sinai's Hollenbach Bldg (mental heath outpatient building) and the Dispatcher demanded to talk to someone else before she would send cops, after 5-10 minutes of discussion and verfying previous reports, she stated rapidly, "if they come back, call back" and hung up.

Rahm is smart enough to crack down on the child sex trafficking, raping, robbing, and now constantly shooting at the police, thugs in Garfield and Lawndale. Where is Cong Danny Davis..oh, yes he is alledgedly paying most of his campaign contrubutions to this wife, Vera. Where is Mike Changler, Art Turner, Jr ????

Anonymous said...This mayor is soooo out of touch. Growing up so far from the ghetto, has greatly impaired his sense of current ghetto realities. He is way over his head.

Since I am retiring soon I will write a job description for myself and then apply for the job. It will be for the Director of The Mayor's Office of Ghetto Affairs and my job will be to explain Shithead Ghetto language and culture to him and what must be done in certain situations.

Mr. Mayor Have your body guards drive you to 79th and Kedize at around 1am and drive east until you get to the Lake. Along the way count the number of strollers and shorties out walking around like its 1 in the afternoon. You’ll be in the dozens before you get to Exchange. The Super predators are raising a new crop of predators.

rhambo was freaking outi think he and "gary" are starting to crumble under the wieght of the truthi guess they ran out of of "positive" spin and the usual b/sthose people know , they live in it everydayjust like the people on the beatthey see itno matter how much suntimes. tribune or what have you downplays or just doesnt sayain't "selling" any morepeople are getting p/o'dhe made all these "promises" and now has to produce and they can'ti think thier back is against the wall "Gary" is screwed and knows iti guess he now realizes how many "bridges" he and rhambo burnedscrewing with everyone and now cant' get the help:)(btw) you just blew a million with cease-fire call themlet's see what miracles they can work

Yep...left to rot on the liberal/democrat plantation. The problems we face on the south and west side are the direct result of liberal thought and logic. They have made slaves of them all over again but this time its not their labor that is the commodity, its their vote. When everything you wear, everything you eat, everything you drink, every place you've lived, every bit of schooling, has come from the government...you're a freakin' slave!

6/29/2012 04:17:00 AM------------------------------------

Right on on the commodity logic!

The problems on the south and west sides have grown like a cancer metastasizing across the entire country though. If it hasn't hit you yet it will.

Trickle up poverty.

...you forgot to mention that ever place you work is controlled by the government.

Which corporation gets the bailout, which corporation gets the tax break.

Then the political apparatus speaks about free trade and open competition!

Who you kidding?

The banks that should of failed, the automakers and airlines and other corporations that should of went bankrupt with their business being taken over by companies doing things the right way were all bailed out instead with a politician picking and choosing who is going to win and lose.

How is that free trade and a level playing field for competition?

Corporate welfare under the guise of 'they create the jobs"

Watch how right after the election this Nov. some of these very corporations that already received millions of dollar in tax breaks will be right back for more and the politicians will use the same excuse.

They create the jobs so we must give into the extortion and the corporate terrorist. It worked last time and nothings changed. If you're a CEO you just keep doing it. It works just fine. Give them another tax break and let the churls pick up the slack.

If the churls want schools for their kids, a fire department for their homes, a police force for their personal welfare, and healthcare for their parents eff the churls we ain't kicking in for that -- that's the churls problem.

Anyone see any of the NATO inspired tourist stepping off the planes with their sacks of money yet? heh.

Ah, Rahm. You silly little suburban boy. Who raised them? Your political party raised them, you piece of fucking shit. Your party gave them everything from cradle to grave for votes and now you must live with the results, as others die for them. Your party told them that single parent families were fine and rewarded having children out of wedlock. You and yours are responsible, you useless piece of little shit.

What was this seven-year-old kid doing out selling sno-kones at 10:45 p.m.? I'll tell you what. They use these kids as shields for their drug operations. All of those sno-kone and lemonade stands in 015 and 025 are nothing but fronts for drug operations.

I know people don't like to hear this, but the only solution to reduce little monsters from growing up to be criminals is to have public provided abortions and birth control. That is the reality because these people will NEVER be responsible for themselves. I rather pay taxes to provide free abortions and birth control prescriptions then pay for the life-time existence for some unwanted evil spawn to live off welfare or in prison for 20-60 years. There should not be incentives for welfare moms to have more babies when they can't love or even afford to take care of one. I'm for mandatory, tax paid and public provided birth control pills (generic is only like $5 to $10 a month) for all women on welfare.
